MYOXID.—MURID &. papas 
This specimen appears to agree precisely with the spe- 
cimens figured by Filhol in the Ann. Sci. Géol. vol. x. 
pl. u. figs. 3-6. The space occupied by the four cheek- 
teeth measures 0,004, or the same as in one of Filhol’s

described by Schlosser as W. prumevus measures 0,0046.

Myoxus, sp. 
This species is smaller than MW. melitensis, and is also distinguished 
by the perforation of the mandible, in which respect it agrees with 
the group Lllobius. The specimens are too imperfect for specific 
determination.
